Answer:

The atomic number of the element Radium (Ra) is 88. It is an alkaline earth metal. Electronic configuration of Radium (Ra) will be [Rn]7s^{2}[Rn]7s

2

It belongs to the group IIA of the periodic table. Alkaline earth metals that belong to the group IIA of the periodic table lose the valence electrons to form a +2 ion.

Therefore, Radium with an electronic configuration of [Rn]7s^{2}[Rn]7s

2

will lose the two 7s electrons to form the cation with +2 charge.

Hydrogen has three naturally occurring isotopes which figure into the average atomic mass found on the periodic table (1.00974):
Art [367]
The number following the name of the element is the number of subatomic particles inside the nucleus of the atom. This means that it is the mass number of the isotope. The average atomic mass of the element is the sum of the products of the percentage abundance and mass number of the naturally occurring isotopes. 

Since, the average atomic mass of the hydrogen is nearest to 1 then, the most abundant isotope should be hydrogen-1.

1- Which process are fast in carbon cycle?
g100num [7]

Answer:

During photosynthesis, plants absorb carbon dioxide and sunlight to create fuel—glucose and other sugars—for building plant structures. This process forms the foundation of the fast (biological) carbon cycle.

The Slow Carbon Cycle. ... Atmospheric carbon combines with water to form a weak acid—carbonic acid—that falls to the surface in rain. The acid dissolves rocks—a process called chemical weathering—and releases calcium, magnesium, potassium, or sodium ions.
